A Figure Walks

A figure walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
Days of booze and roses
Shine on us, free us all
Who is not irascible
He is no genius
A figure walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
The old golden savages
Killed their philosophers
Corpse from the [...] about
Something followed me out
Go out again
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
And if it grabs my coat tail
I will turn and hit it
If they remove the pegs
Keeping my eyes open
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
It's got eyes of brown, watery
Nails of pointed yellow
Hands of black carpet
It's a quick trip to the ice house
A quick trip to the ice house X 3
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
You X 7
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
A figure walks behind you
A shadow walks behind you
You X 3
And now tales of horror
Which father told me
They never scared me
But they're always in the blind
You cannot see
That figure behind you
Behind you x 2
You x 2
That figure kept on walking
Behind you
There's a man on my trail X 4
He's also behind you
Behind you X 4
That figure kept on walking X 4
Behind you X3
